alpaca-broker-rate-limits-resilience
Make Alpaca API clients resilient — rate-limit header handling, HTTP 429 backoff, exponential retry, bounded concurrency/worker pools, pagination loops, batch sizing, and timeouts. Use when building robust REST clients, bulk/cron jobs, or reconciliation sweeps against Alpaca in any language.
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 156 stars are split between them (about 16 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 56/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit 39111abee6b6, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
